Preferred term

media portrayals of white Americans  

Definition

  • The media exert a significant influence on Americans in the 21st century, since many people rely on the media as their primary source of information about issues and people with whom they have little direct contact. In one form or another, whether television shows, news reports, movies, or magazine and newspaper articles, the media affect and influence virtually everyone.
